Before each operation, disconnect the cooker from
the electricity.To assure the long life of the cooker, it must
be thoroughly cleaned frequently, keeping in mind that:
·
Do not use steam equipment to clean the appliance.
·
the enamelled parts and the self-cleaning panels are
washed with warm water without using any abrasive
powders or corrosive substances which could ruin
them;
·
the inside of the oven should be cleaned fairly often
while it is still warm using warm water and detergent,
followed by careful rinsing and drying;
·
the flame spreaders should be washed frequently with
hot water and detergent taking care to eliminate any
scale;
· Stainless steel may become marked if it comes into
contact with very hard water or harsh detergents
(containing phosphorous) for long periods of time. After
cleaning, it is advisable to rinse thoroughly and dry. It
is also recommended to dry any water drops;
Important: periodically check the wear of the gas hose
and substitute it if there are any defects; we recommended
changing it every year.
